Sinopsis

Hellenic Knowledge Preservation explores how ancient Greek intellectual achievements survived and influenced subsequent civilizations, a pivotal topic for understanding the roots of modern thought. The book highlights the essential roles of institutions like the Platonic Academy, libraries such as the Library of Alexandria, and the translation of Greek texts into languages like Latin and Arabic. These efforts ensured that Greek philosophy, science, and mathematics were not lost, demonstrating that the transmission of knowledge was an active, multifaceted endeavor.

 
The book traces the journey of Hellenic knowledge from ancient Greece through the Roman Empire, the Middle Ages, and into the Renaissance. It examines key educational centers, translation movements, and the rediscovery of Greek texts in Europe. By adopting a chronological approach and blending historical narrative with in-depth analysis, Hellenic Knowledge Preservation provides a comprehensive account of how Greek thought shaped Western civilization.

    What forces are operating in the shadows of the war in Ukraine, both inside and outside the theater of operations? What clandestine operations have been going on for the past three years, unknown to the general public? How does the secret war between Russia and Western countries often spill over into terrorism? What assassinations have been carried out against oligarchs across Europe? How are Western intelligence services, particularly British, helping the Ukrainians? What is the presence of Ukrainian services in Russia? What has become of the American biological laboratories since 1922?...
    To answer these questions and many others, Jacques Baud draws on official information, American, Western, Ukrainian and Russian documents. Between secret diplomacy and clandestine operations, the war in Ukraine was far more complex than the media portrayed it. 
    Following on from the bestsellers Putin, the Master of the Game, Operation Z and Ukraine Between War and Peace and The Art of Russian War, whose analytical work has been acclaimed worldwide and whose books have been translated in many countries (USA, China, Japan, Korea, Great Britain, Germany -bestseller-, Russia, Italy, Spain, Sweden, Norway, Turkey, Brazil and the Arab countries), the author returns to the clandestine war that has been waged between Russia, Ukraine and Western countries for the past three years.

    Before the podcast and the smartphone, there was the cassette tape and the Walkman — two devices that, although not considered much today, were revolutionary. They were recordable, rewritable, spliceable, compact, and mobile. For the first time, they allowed you to move through the world and listen to a voice speaking only to you. These cassette tapes brought us together, pulled us apart, and forever changed how we say those three simple words, ‘I love you.’ In five episodes from around the world, Mixtape explores the impact the cassette had and continues to have today.

    We live in a world of oppositional relationships and increasing in-group/out-group divisions. Christian sociologist Matthew Vos explains how the problem of the stranger lies at the root of many problems humanity faces, such as racism, sexism, and nationalism. He applies classic sociological theory on "the stranger" to matters of faith and social justice, showing that an identity in Christ frees us to love strangers as neighbors and friends. The book also includes two guest chapters, one on intersex persons and the church and one on stranger-making in the "correctional" system.
